    FRYING a camcorder

    I would have put a couple random pictures in front of them, maybe ones of your balcony with nothing going on up there. Like they do in the spy movies :> Just to see how long it would take for your neighbor to take them down. Maybe make some bets with friends.

    Windows 7 64bit, looked several times, even took the box apart basically to make sure it didn't slip into a fold or something. I sent a message off asking about it. :)

    Experiences with Information Unlimited?

    depends on the plan I guess, and how good you are for adapting some of the older tech to the new designs. That is like looking at "how to build your own laser phaser and ion ray gun...

    Experiences with Information Unlimited?

    I remember the Information Unlimited catalogs that I would get in the late 80's Used to look at them and imagine what I could do with all the cool stuff they used to have in them :> I built an "ion ray gun" from them :D It charged a person up from a distance so whenever they touched...

    DIY gas laser

    It isn't the laser head itself that really costs a whole lot, most of the cost is in the support equipment such as a vacuum pump. Other things that can add to the cost are the optics, depending how DIY you want to get. Tools will include things like a butane torch, drill press, files and...

    DIY gas laser

    Well most of it came from your standard hardware store, in this case lowes and home depot. I have been experimenting with things as I go along with this build. The glass tube came from the local neon sign place, as did the nst, which I got for basically free. It did cost me a batch of...

    DIY gas laser

    This is my first serious attempt at firing my DIY gas laser. I decided to make a new thread for this portion of the journey :D If you want to take a look at the build notes/pictures, I posted it on a website here http://home.gci.net/~thundersqueak/CO2_Laser.html The setup is a Yellow Jacket...

    More lasers vs ipad3

    This had me wondering if he was being paid by WL to do this, almost like an advertisement. But then, most of his videos sort of make me go "why?". :thinking:

    Re gas a Co2 tube

    got a picture of the tube? going to convert it to a flowing gas type? You will need to re-align the mirrors as the change in pressure can cause them to move. With a proper vacuum you should have a pink glow... if it is purple it means you have a leak in the system that will need to be...

    First "Build" 100mW Greenie

    Looks better than my first "build", which I still use to align mirrors and such :> Assembled it into a dice box :o, good thing it was only a 5mw red and did not require heat sinking. I would have loved to have had a visible beam like yours :( Maybe next time :eg:

    8 lasers shipped at once = Customs problem?

    8 lasers shipped at once = Customs problem?

    100mw is still dangerous. <hijack> I was having a thought... a beautiful picture might be taking a night shot in the winter from flat top ... maybe a green beam against one of the more reddish auroras ^^... maybe with some ice crystals in the air. I was just looking outside, nice night isn't...

    Safety glasses: What % of laser light do they block? Any combo deals?

    Just wanted to make sure he knew that he would need to make sure he covered all the wavelengths for the lasers he is working with :beer: :thanks:

    Safety glasses: What % of laser light do they block? Any combo deals?

    Those don't cover the red lasers, which are usually 635-650nm, You will need something like these as well Eagle Pair® 190-400nm & 580-760nm Laser Safety Goggles You would need 2 -3 different pairs of safety glasses to cover the spectrum from what I have seen. Unless someone has found some...
